In addition to what Alice suggested, you can also alter your image so that there is blank space under it (or anywhere in the image that you want to see the link from the ‘Site Name’) to allow room for the site name link to show. This is what I’ve done, though the other options can also allow you to add this link.

Be aware, though, if you use the other options that Google may not like this. I can’t remember where I read it (it was somewhere on the BANS forum) but my understanding is that Google might see this as your trying to be somehow sneaky and they may punish you with lower search engine rankings.

If someone knows more about this please share.

We’ve all had that problem once we started to “decorate” our stores. There are a couple of ways to handle it. With mono-colored backgrounds you just make the font color the same as the background. (duh!) The other way is when you have multi-colors in the logo and can’t get the title font to match. This was suggested – I think in the BANS forum – and I use it a lot cuz its so easy.

For both you need to go into your Template => Style Sheet and find the code that looks like this:

/ * Logo Site Name Start * /

Look for the margin-left line (or add one in if you don’t have one) and make the number -2000. That will move it off your logo. Be sure to follow the existing formatting or it won’t work. The sample below has spaces added so it will appear on this post – it won’t show up if I left it as correct code.

margin -left: -2000 px ;

OR you can just change the color of the text to match the background:

color: #XXXXXX;

One of the things you list is #2 Check your title tag.

I admit mine was blank. Ok, so I put a keyword there and it appears on top of my logo. Doesn’t look very professional. Is there a way to have it go to the background? or at least change the color so it looks as though I wanted it there. Anybody else have this problem? Probably just me. I am a newbie.

I have removed the .exe file and replaced it with a .pdf file. You can download it from the exact same link above. Please let me know if this works better.

I had no problem reading the .exe file, but agree with several above readers that PDF format would be better.

Could you write the eBook using the OpenOffice.org software and export it as a PDF? That way, all computer users would be able to read and enjoy the eBook, not just windows users.

It’s a good read.

Thanks, Rochelle.
